Hi Casliber, thanks for taking this review. I'll keep an eye on it. WA8MTWAYC (talk) 13:27, 2 January 2021 (UTC)

• , the colours of the former rugby club, - I'd put this in endashes or emdashes, to differentiate from commas...

• When it was decided to found the Football League for the 1888–89 season, - why not just, "When the Football League was established/founded for the 1888–89 season," or rework as "Burnley were among the 12 founder members - and one of the six Lancashire-based clubs - of the inagural 188-89 season of the Football League"
  • Reworded. WA8MTWAYC (talk) 12:02, 4 January 2021 (UTC)
• who changed the club's colours from green to the claret and blue of First Division champions Aston Villa; - err, wut? when they change from blue and white to green...?
